Thanks to all who attended the Spiritual Gifts Bible Study.

Grace and peace to all,

Thanks to all who attended the Spiritual Gifts Bible Study.

I am inviting everyone to spend sometime with God to discover what your spiritual gifts are. The inventory of questions takes about 10-15 minutes to complete online (depending on which tool you select). Print a copy of your results prior to departing from any of the inventory locations.

Listed below are a few on-line options (select 1 tool to complete):

• www.umc.org - roll your mouse over the Our People tab and click on the Spiritual Gifts. Answer the 21 questions. When it summarizes your gifts, click "Printer Version" at the top of the page (the icon is very small)
• http://www.churchgrowth.org/analysis/intro.php - click on the free individual analysis. After you complete the questions, it will summarize and you can print it out for free. The site is selling other materials, I am not recommending that you purchase any items. We will have enough material to guide our study.
• http://hydeparkumc.org/connect/spiritual-gifts/spiritual-gifts-assessment-tool/ - complete the tool and print your results. Please do not email them because they will be sent to that UMC Pastor. I am suggesting that you may select this as an on-line tool that has a few more questions.

Select (1) tool to complete your inventory; then pray, complete it, and print a copy for your personal records. I hope that you will share your Gifts.

Our New Vision is on the horizon and we will want to embrace it. To start the journey, you are invited to discover your spiritual gifts and discern how God wants you to serve. Our two 3-week sections for Summer Bible Study series will help us learn together about what our gifts are and how to use them in our church and community. Make plans to study with us from June 15th thru July 20th at 7pm. Invite a friend, neighbor, relative to come with you each week. [ Spiritual Gifts Assessment on online ]
